RE: NEED FOR STATE RECLAMATION PERMIT o~rrh on Director
Dear Mr. Blasi:
Enclosed are copies of Rules 1.2 and 2.5 from the Mineral or Consttvction Materials Rules and
Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board. To determine if you need a permit for your
proposed activity, first check Rule 1.2 which describes activities the Board has determined do not require
state reclamation permits. If you fmd a match, you can proceed based on your interpretation of the tole,
but at your risk. If you want to be sure or are uncertain how the Rule may apply to your activity, you
should follow the procedures described under Rule 2.5 and petition the Board for a Declaratory Order
exempting your activity from the requirement to have a state reclamation permit.
The Board has directed the Division to make a preliminary determination, regarding the petition and to
advise you of that determination. A determination by the Division, however, does NOT give you the
level of protection a Declaratory Order from the Board gives. If the Division is uncertain as to your need
for a permit, the Division will schedule a hearing before the Board for a Declaratory Order.
Please include in your petition answers to the following questions. These are some of the questions the
Board typically asks of petitioners for a Declaratory Order for a waiver from the requirement to obtain
a Mined Land Reclamation permit:
Please give the legal location of the proposed project and submit an index map [hat clearly
delineates the location of the proposed extraction site and the location of the nearest city,
town, etc.
2. Is the site of material extraction public or privately owned property?
3. What type(s) of material is proposed [o be extracted?
4. Will the extracted material be hauled offsite or used on the same parcel of property where
[he material is extracted?
5. What on site use will be made of [he extracted material?
6. If the material is hauled offsite, where will i[ be hauled and what is the intended use?
7. What is the approxin3ate areal extent of the proposed extraction in acres?
